Pun Fun 1: The Contenders

Ladies and gentlemen, its the moment that you've all been waiting for. Voting is now open in the inaugural Pun Fun competition.

Readers were challenged to come up with a sports related pun in a song title. Ten brave souls did so, to whom many thanks. I added in one of my own to turn it up to 11 in Spinal Tap style.

Voting is open to anyone not just those of you who entered (but if you did enter please don't vote for yourself - you won't be given any points if you do). Even the bots from Singapore are free to join in as long as they don't spoil their ballots by demanding puns about dragon boat racing.

Let me know your top three in order of preference. I will then award 5 points for your first choice, 3 for second and 1 for third and we will see where we end up.

You can either submit your votes in the comments section or email them to leggies27@hotmail.co.uk if you prefer to preserve the sanctity of the secret ballot. The deadline is next Saturday (22 November) and we'll announce the results a week today.

Here are the contenders, listed alphabetically by artist. 

1. 'Walk Like A Wrestling Man' - The Bangles
2. 'Maiden Heaven' - Be Bop Deluxe
3. 'Lacrosse The Universe' - The Beatles
4. 'Sgt Pepper's Lonely Darts Club Band' - The Beatles
5. 'Scrum Love' - Bob Marler & The Wailers
6. 'Clubthumping' - Chumbawumba
7. 'Croquet Fred' - Errol Dunkley
8. 'Satan Rejected My Goal' - Morrissey
9. 'Can't Stand Luge-ing You' - The Police
10. 'The Boy With Willie Thorne In His Side' - The Smiths
11. 'I Kabaddi Anything But My Love' - The Stylistics

Good luck everyone. Dillinger, the disguised Duran Duran and I all have our fingers crossed that you will do well.

"Big Score" - Dillinger
